Do you have the money? Is the phone worth it? Are you sure it’ll be a regret-free decision?

There is absolutely no point spending a fortune on a mobile phone if you’re going to ask yourself “should I sell my phone?” in a month’s time. Newer models constantly replace current ones, and there’s a good chance you’d want to jump ship soon.

Also, prices can drop after a month or so, which means you might miss out on a good deal.

Here’s the difference – a used phone is given to you in the same condition that its previous owner left it in. The condition of the phone hasn’t been restored, and the phone usually has no warranty.

A refurbished phone, on the other hand, is a ‘clean’ phone; it is tested and repaired, and functions just like a new one. Buying a refurbished phone, you’ll receive an unlocked phone, and a manufacturer warranty to go with it.

2. Use Your Favorite Model For LongerIf you aren’t all that gadget-crazy, and own a timeless favorite, refurbished phones allow you to hold on to that model for longer.

Here’s how: if the company has stopped manufacturing that particular model, and you’re looking for a replacement, you can easily bag one from the refurbished selection.

3. Save The EnvironmentRefurbished phones help reduce waste.

Despite the fact that old phones and their parts can indeed be recycled, most firms instead reuse a product as many times as possible in its existing condition before recycling.

5. Live (Relatively) Regret FreeWith refurbished phones, you will hardly (if ever) regret spending too much for too little. On the contrary, most refurbished phone owners are happier that their money hasn’t gone down the drain. Additionally, if you lose this phone, you might be a little less disappointed – crude though that may sound.

Pick a refurbished phone today, and enjoy the benefits of the low-budget as-good-as-new gadget of your choice!
